San Benedetto del Tronto - by the sea, in the countryside

San Benedetto del Tronto is the second largest city in the north of the Marche region and is a popular tourist destination. I think this place is unique, the coast is known as Riviera delle Palme, thanks to the more than 8,000 different trees that are they find on the waterfront. This walk is six kilometers long and thirty meters wide, located directly on the sea and most of it has been recently renovated.

On the seafront you can see beautiful gardens with palm trees, there's also a bike path, tennis courts and pine forests. Here are also the beach clubs, hotels and historic private villas. On the southern part, the thematic gardens were built a few years ago. So we went to see the palm garden, the rose garden, the Mediterranean maquis garden, the arid garden and the damp garden, after we took a bike ride behind the port. .

Not far from the coast, there is the old town, whose origins date back to the 10th Century. The Tower (Torre Gualtieri) became the symbol of the city after the walls were restored. In the center you can naturally find some churches, the Cathedral of Santa Maria della Marina, and the Monument to Fishermen, the work of a local artist, and the Monument to the Jonathan Seagull. The Course is the pedestrian zone of the city, where cafes and restaurants are located in historic buildings, but here are of course also the boutiques.

One day we also went north, to Sentina, which is an important nature reserve and one of the few places throughout the Adriatic coast, where it is located still unspoiled nature with the very long sandy beaches.
